A Good Day to Die film showing Nov 6

ASA is co-sponsoring the film screening, A Good Day to Die. (Above is the trailer to A Good Day to Die. )
In 1968 the abused, neglected and repressed American-Indian people fought back. From the depths of despair Dennis Banks, co-founder of the American Indian Movement (AIM), led his people into confrontation with the government and changed their lives forever. A stirring account of the forgotten Indian civil rights movement, this documentary recounts not only the struggle but also depicts the terrible repression they endured.

Tuesday, November 6 at 6 pm in Chilton 111C.

NOTE: This will replace the regularly scheduled meeting.
